Note: Currently, due to Twitter's API limitations, you cannot tag users with the @ symbol.

URL Shortening in Social Posts

LinkedIn automatically shortens all web links longer than 26 characters. This is done to make posts easier to read, and provides more room to add text. The links will not appear shortened in SharpSpring when you are creating the post, but will be automatically shortened when the post is published to your actual LinkedIn account.
